I move amendment No. 68:

In page 33, to delete lines 24 to 27.

This amendment also relates to the make-up of the authority. We are proposing a 21-member authority with nine political representatives to be elected based on the d'Hondt method and 12 ordinary members who are representative of civil society and have expertise in the field. We propose that the 12 ordinary members should elect a chairperson from among themselves and that there should also be a role for advisory groups in the process, as I have already outlined.
